Consumer Unit Upgrades for city flats and commercial units

Many homes and small businesses across Glasgow are still running on outdated fuse boards with no RCD protection. We replace these with modern, correctly rated consumer units that meet current regulations and give you real protection.

Most of our work in Glasgow City Centre is on city centre flats and tenement conversions through to commercial and retail units across the city. Tenement flats often mean shared stairwells, older meter rooms, and sometimes a shared supply to consider — we plan around all of that before we start, not after.

  • Replacement of old fuse boards
  • RCD and surge protection options
  • Sized correctly for your property
  • Same-day upgrades in most cases

Compliance & Regulations

A consumer unit replacement is notifiable work under Scottish building regulations. We self-certify this as a registered electrician, so you avoid a separate council application while still getting the correct compliance paperwork.

Getting to Glasgow City Centre From Our Southside Base

It's around 10-15 minutes from the City Centre via the M8 and Kingston Bridge, then south on Eglinton Street towards our Southside base on Inverlair Drive (G43) — well within our usual call-out range, so a visit to Glasgow City Centre is a normal part of the working week for us, not a special trip.

Fantastic service. Danny was great in organising a professional and timely service. Good communication throughout too. Calum, who fitted a new consumer unit, was a tidy worker and very pleasant and super helpful, replacing an old light fitting for me too. Very pleased with the service. Highly recommend and would use again.

Dan and Rachel are honest, reliable, polite and efficient electricians. Rachel installed a new distribution box and Dan installed a new thermostat at short notice when our central heating suddenly stopped working. Dan offers a personal service at value for money prices. I'm happy to recommend Quality Electrics.
